sustainability

Beginning in 2021, we reengineered our Transit Tech fabric to be made from recycled polyester instead of virgin poly, lowering the impact of this textile. We also increased the stretch and reduced the weight while we were at it to improve overall comfort and performance.

Transit Tech uses a short-chain C6 DWR finish that, while better than long-chain DWR applications, we recognize is not environmentally ideal as it is PFC-based. However, C6 DWR does provide the best performing and longest-lasting water repellency we have found so far on soft-shell fabrics. Because of this we have chosen to use it on select products while we continue to research PFC-free alternatives, like the water repellency used on our Zephyr Runner fabric.

 

Our Transit Tech fabric is also bluesign® certified meaning it is free from harmful chemicals and is fabricated in a way that meets a high environmental standard.

Transit Tech Short

This is the best short ever because of the pockets. Two full sized zippered pockets in a women's athletic short is so hard to find.

Light weight, no liner (yeah!), good length

These are very useful short for all activities. I appreciate the no-liner style, pockets and length for everyday activities, errands, dog walking etc. I wouldn't necessarily wear these running, but that's my preference. The material is very light weight, but not fragile. Useful and easy to wear! 5'5 about 135 and a Medium is perfect.

pretty great

Found these a bit small in the waist but I’m really digging them regardless. Quick drying, lightweight, and they don’t bunch too much.

Really into the fact that there’s no liner.

Please consider making longer shorts for women! A 5in AFO would be a game changer.

New favorite hiking/trail running shorts

I love these shorts. I can fit everything I need for most hikes or runs in the pockets. They're loose and breatheable. They don't ride up. Love em!

So far so good

Love the shorts. Fit is more spot on than the AFO middle shorts and the Mercury track pants, which I felt ran small. Feel really comfortable, and tons of convenient pockets with zippers to stash things for the long run. Honestly, the perfect trail shorts for a long run when you need something a little heavier weight.
